Day 27 - Chapter 5, Verses 21-24

When Jesus had crossed again (in the boat) to the other side, a large crowd gathered around him, and he stayed close to the sea. One of the synagogue officials, named Jairus, came forward. Seeing him he fell at his feet and pleaded earnestly with him, saying, "My daughter is at the point of death. Please, come lay your hands on her that she may get well and live."

He went off with him, and a large crowd followed him and pressed upon him.

We all have moments in our lives when we are desperate to implore the Lord for help. Spend some time ‘reliving’ the emotions of the father who is ‘pleading earnestly’ for his daughter’s life. What does it feel like to be so totally dependent?
